The Retailing Club Learns How To Sell RETAILING CLUB Members of the Retailing Club of Mount Clemens High School must also be members of the MCHS Co-operative Training Program. The Co-operative Training Program is an arrangement be- tween the administration of Mount Clemens High School, and various clown- town Mount Clemens business places. Under this arrangement, MCHS students who are taking a Business Training course may attend classes in the mornings and work downtown afternoons. The students get credit hours toward a diploma for the hours they work downtown. This pro- gram affords good practice for students who plan to enter the business world after graduating from MCHS, and it also helps the student obtain some extra spending money. The Retailing Club, under the sponsorship of Miss Margaret Tucholski, is made up of Co-operative Training Pro- gram participants who have a job such as clerking, fountain Work, stock-room work-any job which involves the actual handling of merchandise. These students join the club to learn more about retail merchandising, and to share expenses and skills learned in handling merchandise and meeting the public.
